Specific:
– Responding to a income drop of just about a 3rd in 1955 and 1956, Carl Borgward decided to generate a extra lovely Isabella with a shortened roof line, now referred to as the Isabella (TS) Coupé.
– 4 hand constructed prototypes were nicely obtained by the press.
– Borgward gave one particular of these prototypes to his spouse, Elisabeth, who would continue on to travel it into the eighties.
– Several publications touted the Isabella Coupe as one particular of Germany’s most lovely cars.
– In Germany a two doorway auto was normal, whilst in other countries the 4 doorway cars were normal.
– The TS versions become the extra powerful engine (85bhp) with a Solex 32 PAITA carburettor.
– The Isabella has a self supporting human body with a absolutely synchronized 4-velocity gearbox (operated with a hydraulic clutch) and rear wheel travel.
– The entrance wheels are suspended by unequal length double wishbones with coil springs and stabilizer (like the racing auto Borgward RS).
– At the rear Isabella has a swing axle with coil springs and drive rods.
– On request, the TS coupe was available with (in that time) the preferred tail fins provided therein, in comparison to the collection model, larger sized tail lights.
– Because Borgward abruptly arrived into money hassle (1961), creation stopped in that year. The creation was marketed to the Fabrica Nacional de Automoviles SA Monterrey (Mexico). They produced from 1967 until eventually its individual bankruptcy in 1970 the Borgward P100, referred to as in Mexico the Borgward 230.
